Raag Bhairavi belongs to Bhairavi Thaat which features Komal Rishabh, Komal Gandhar, Komal Dhaivat and Komal Nishad (Rest notes Shudha and its Sampoorna Raag with all 7 notes). If the artist sings a correct position of the notes of one raga with the other thaat then certainly he or she is a awesome performer. Regards, Rekha Pandya read less

Dear Mansoor, The first thing is in North Indian classical music we belongs Raga-Raganga system. The second thing is, if Someone say that he is going to sing lalit in bhairavi thhat then he can call that raga lalit-bhairavi or Bhairavi-lalit. He can not called that raga lalit because both raga based on different notes and chalan. It can happen by legends only. read less
